Carcassonne en pays Cathare

by ptitetoile - last update: Oct 29, 2004

Experiencing the middleage

Carcassonne was the point of departure of my first discovery trip of the South-East of France. In fact, the proximity of the mountain range Pyrénées was a determining factor in my decision to travel till there! But I did not know that the region of Carcassonne was also so nice!

The first day, my friend and I visited the City (fortress) and the Bastide (lower town) of Carcassonne. Then, we rented a car to go to the French/Andorrian/Spanish Pyrénées :

Here is my itinary :

-Carcassonne-Mirepoix-Montréal-Foix-Tarascon

-Vicdessos
-Lac de Soulcem (hiking to Port Bouet)
-Hospitalet-près-l'Andorre
